A quick definition of chattel vegetable:
A chattel vegetable is a movable object made from plants, like trees, crops, or fruits. Chattel refers to any personal property that can be physically moved or transferred, and chattel vegetables are a specific type of chattel that come from plants. This is different from real property, which includes land and buildings that cannot be easily moved.
A more thorough explanation:
A chattel vegetable is a movable article of a vegetable origin, such as timber, undergrowth, corn, or fruit. Chattel refers to movable or transferable property, which is not the subject matter of real property. Chattel vegetable is a type of personal property that can be physically delivered.
For example, if a farmer grows corn on his land, the corn is considered a chattel vegetable because it is movable and can be harvested and sold. Similarly, if a person owns a fruit tree, the fruit that grows on the tree is also considered a chattel vegetable.
Chattel vegetable is a subcategory of chattel personal, which refers to tangible goods or intangible rights such as patents. Chattel real, on the other hand, refers to a real-property interest that is less than a freehold or fee, such as a leasehold estate.
